Description

RCR Architects …Self The fifth volume in the scalae architecture + architects international ebook collection. RCR architects illustrate and discuss the universe of creativity and life that they share, describing in detail the basis for their principles and ways of being and acting. The region they are from, La Garrotxa, and a very specific take on craftsmanship intermingle with an explicit understanding of nature and the universal, giving rise to comments, proposals, and activities that reveal the genuine nature of these three architects from Olot. Together, they make up what is possibly one of the most significant contemporary Catalan architecture studios, making architecture that is consciously timeless.

Fèlix Arranz & Jordi Badia A multimedia catalogue in English and Catalan introducing the exhibition Vogadors. Architectural Rowers, mounted on the occasion of the participation of Catalonia and the Balearic Islands in the Venice Biennale Architettura 2012.

Anna and Eugeni Bach illustrate and describe the circumstances surrounding their work step by step, project by project, sketch by sketch. Their undertakings reach beyond their own personal and professional lives to make way for – and create content and form for – an architecture that, in the specific context of Europe in 2013, is emblematic of the aspirations of a whole generation of vital, cultured architects who are committed to the time and place they live in, and of the way these architects understand the familiar and the foreign, the personal and the collective, the natural and the unusual, the here and now and the presence of those that have gone before them.

Fèlix Arranz & Jaume Prat The third volume in the scalae architecture + architects international ebook collection. The architect Josep Ferrando, from Barcelona, talks about the professional path he has taken; the expeditionary nature of all of the personal, professional, and university-related activities he has ended up being involved in; the way he understands any of the documents he produces as full-blown architecture; his vision of his career path as a journey that encompasses work on any scale. The rest of the book is made up of original documents, bibliographical references, an invitation to join the conversation, and the fractal map of scalae.net collaborations.

Fèlix Arranz & Jaume Prat First volume of the scalae architecture + architects international ebook collection.

Original drawings, references, and an invitation to participate in the debate make up the rest of the issue.

Jaume Prat & Fèlix Arranz The first ...from volume of the scalae architecture + architects international ebook collection, which completes the fractal –or geodesic– map that is made up of the combination of the ...self, ...from, and ...about volumes. Jaume Prat Ortells offers nine accounts of nine experiences in which he glides freely – rarely intercepting or crashing into himself, never using metaphors – between fragments of architecture and scraps of art and life: circumstances, clarifications, comments, or experiences related to literature, cinema, popular music, or something else that shall remain nameless for the time being.
